to strip (the skin) from (a person or animal); to excoriate a person or organization means to criticize them severely, usually in public.
I did well at English in school, earned a couple of bachelor degrees at university and thought I was pretty smart. Yet every time I read something, it seems like there's another word I've either not seen before, or couldn't accurately define if pressed! I guess I'm not as bright as I thought! This blog logs words that are new or unclear to me as I attempt to reduce my ignorance, one word at a time!
